I want to make a website which can schedule posts on Facebook or Instagram similar to this. I know the basics of Rails, Bootstrap and a little bit of Python, is that going to be enough? What other things do I need to know to make this project? Thanks in advance for replying!

Hey guys! I’m excited to share with you an exciting upcoming hackathon, High Tech Hacks 2.0! High Tech Hacks is a free, international 24-hour hackathon on May 21-22nd, 2022 open to all high schoolers hoping to learn a new coding skill, compete for awesome prizes, or work with other like-minded hackers. Let’s invent, create, and push the boundaries of technology (as much as we can at one hackathon)!

What to expect:

• Last year, participants learned the basics of web development, Python, virtual reality, and how to make a Discord bot from current software engineers at Microsoft, Amazon, Twilio, other tech companies, and Columbia University SHPE.
• Thanks to our company sponsors, each participant last year received nearly $400 worth of free software and swag.
• Register to earn FREE swag (t-shirts, water bottles, stickers!)

hey all, can anyone help me understand why i'm getting the unpermitted parameters message and where the address parameter is coming from in the first place? I have not previously had to explicitly include the id parameter but have never run into it being unpermitted, also i'm not including an address parameter, but there seems to be one anyway. if someone could help me figure out what's going on, i would greatly appreciate it https://gist.github.com/njmbb8/b752ffa443540da5d8b669f3263a709b

I have a simple app to track goals. I'm having an issue with a simple update.

scaffold update works great to edit the entire goal, however I have a simple update on the index page to only update 1 item on the tracker, the current value of the tracked goal.

I cannot find a solution for the problem. My simple form_with to select the existing goal

    <%= onpageupdate.select :name, options_for_select(@goals.collect { | goal | [goal.name] } )%>

and update the current goal

    <%= onpageupdate.label "New Attempt"  %>
    <%= onpageupdate.text_field :curvalue, type: "number" %>
    <%= onpageupdate.submit %>

This only creates a new record. the controller for this function reads

 def onpageupdate
    @goal = Goal.find(params[:id])
    @goal.update(goal_params)
  end

wat am i missing?

I'm a php developer, sadly I seen post that php is dead so I'm having doubts to continue studying it. They say Ruby on Rails is more in demand over it. I want to get your opinion about this, should I continue study it or should I just study the more in demand language

I have just finished the Udemy to-do list app course, and im wanting to start my first project. I want to create an app similar to kahoot (Heres the sort of thing I want to build) The important thing I want to do is have players able to react in real time, so you can see the exact moment each other player locks in their guess. However I have no idea how I could even start to approach this.

Hi

I'm looking to become a junior developer and have seen that University XI have a 5 month intensive program where they teach Ruby on Rails and other full stack "stuff" with a guaranteed* job at the end of the course.

It's $12,000 Australian and quite expensive and the guaranteed* job seem to have lots of conditions with it.

Having tried to learn online before with a number of universities and finding the quality of the lectures and support terrible, I'm pretty nervous about spending money on something like this.

I can find many reviews online and hoped to reach out to this community to see if anyone has any direct experience or knows of someone who has.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Stripe API seems pretty simple to integrate from reading the Docs.

Am I missing something, or is it really simple?

The main advantages of this way are to have an independent environment for the tests running and to reduce the complexity of the test environment setup.

What we want to achieve:

• Running the tests should be easy.
• Test runs should be isolated and repeatable.
• Test environment should be as close to the production environment as possible.

How to setup and use docker-compose for Ruby on Rails tests you can find in the article: https://jtway.co/running-tests-in-containers-with-docker-compose-97480726c1e3

The logic of small applications can be present as a series of transactions. Using the Transaction Scripts pattern, we get an application that is easier to maintain, to cover with tests, and to scale.

In the tutorial we will develop an application that has Post, User, and Like models. Users should be able to like posts. The first version of the controller will contain extra code, which we will extract into a separate Transaction Script. We also describe when we need to use the Transaction Scripts and the pros of the transaction script usage.
